A couple doors down from the cafe you'll find the Loop Wallz Mural Project (6265 Delmar Boulevard, University City), a new endeavor from longtime St. Louis artist Peat Wollaeger, whose work you'll recognize by its ever-present eyeball motif. The space opened in January and is home to a collection of Wollaeger's art, any piece of which is sure to add a nice touch of street-art style to any room in your home.

314 Day Illumination of the McDonnell Planetarium
The James S. McDonnell Planetarium (5100 Clayton Avenue) will be illuminated with a new colorful, limited-edition 314 Day 2024 design, created by local artist Marley Billie D (Instagram: @marleybillied) on March 13 and 14 from 7 to 10:30 p.m. each evening. The light display will be visible from east- and west-bound Highway 40/64 or by visiting Forest Park and heading up Faulkner Drive and around the Planetarium grounds. (Note: the photo above is from last year’s projection of local artist Dan Zettwoch’s 2023 design — this art will be brand-new).

CBGB
The one-room, two-toilet graffitied women's bathroom at CBGB (3163 South Grand Boulevard) is definitely on the more interesting side. You literally face another human while peeing. Like, just imagine looking over and making eye contact and nodding (because that's the Midwestern way) while taking a piss. And the best part is there's a wooden table placed between the two that the toilet paper sits on so the two parties can share. But to be frank, if we were drunk at CBGB's on a Saturday night we would 100 percent use this bathroom with our best friend and think it was the coolest shit we'd ever seen.

The Neighborhood: Lafayette Square
The vibe: Lovingly restored mansions and bougie restaurants centered around the oldest city park west of the Mississippi 
Ideal for: Young couples. City lovers with younger kids who want to meet other city lovers with younger kids. LGBTQ people. People who are single and like a walkable neighborhood but don’t mind most bars closing by 11 p.m. 
Not ideal for: Broke 20somethings (it ain’t cheap). 
Extra perk: Something of a peninsula surrounded by highways, Lafayette Square is great for getting just about anywhere in St. Louis in 15 minutes — even the Metro East. No wonder it draws military families in addition to the expected doctors and lawyers. 
Where to meet the locals: With kids, the park. Without, 33 Wine Bar
